Okay 10am at the Park Center. The Triple V Gang (or at least those of us who don't have to work on Saturday, blech) will deliver Ryan from the front door of his hotel to the pavilion at the parking area. We are hoping to meet a bunch of you! Oh AND, in the past HF has had a huge beautiful fireworks display on the Saturday before the 4th so you may want to make a day of it, or maybe we should start later?

After a very recent trip there I really don't think there would be enough parking for everyone who says they want to attend and a $5 donation per family to the park service for 'hosting' this event would be a nice gesture. Just a thought.

The Triple V Gang met up with Ryan again last night at the Blackburn Trail Center. We met lots of cool hikerfolk and had a very enjoyable visit. Since no decision has been made as to when and where to meet I couldn't give Ryan a time or place but I am set to email him as soon as we decide. I know that parking is a premium in HF so I'm just not sure where the best place is. My personal vote is for the AT headquarters but again parking may be an issue. If we all park down at the river where the parking lots are we could just meet somewhere down there and walk up the hill to the icecream place for refreshments.

So what does everyone think? Who else is coming? 10am at the parking area by the river?

the wax museum, etc.

Any idea of the agenda? i.e., where are you all going for lunch? We are
obsessed with good eatin' but we're asking because we probably can't make it
until 12:30 or 1 0'clock'ish. We wanted to see if we could catch up with
the gang along the way. Just curiuos. BeMa

I would be interested in going up but its about a ~2 hour drive for
me. I'm hoping I can convince my friends to go to. But Maybe a
little later would be helpful. I will not know about my final plans
untill tonight but I can get on line then with a response.
